You forgot to mention Olbermann, you inbred hick.
Ewww ... Man, FL, you are soooo in the tank for the righties on FNC. I think I wanna puke ...
FNC is soooo fair & balanced that they have ZERO left-leaning commentators and regularly refer to our prez as comrade, socialist, pals w/terrorists, communist ...
And yet anyone with an (R) next to their name gets a free ride.
Yup, those fair & balanced news models @ FNC sure handed it to Bush on lying about Iraq, the stock market dive in 08 (remember Obama was just talking down the economy?) and the recession.
LOL!
I don't think people get the term "fair and balanced" here.
Fox uses the term as something of a balance for all of media. Since MSNBC is so in the tank for the liberal agenda, Fox is "fair and balanced" in the way that they present the other side. Sometimes, however, that is the only side they present.
It is good to see the other side get their say every now and then, but to have Cavuto interrupting and trying to disprove everything with talking points--that's not "fair and balanced". That's "biased but willing to hear the other side". And just because the other side his heard, that doesn't mean what they say is absorbed.
The same goes for MSNBC at times, but it is much worse at Fox.
Eric was on point. Several side points were ignored for this time in the belly of the beast I suppose.
Cavito calling hospital construction a short term investment? Was one. The number of ear marks has been reduced since 06 per certain progressive blogs. Two.
Sort of.
But its also the schtick of every wingnut talking head on Faux News.
